Random disconnects and other issues

since the latest updates my 360 elite has developed some rather annoying traits.

Im getting randomly dicsonnected sometimes after a few minutes sometimes after an hour.

Im in orange uk broadband service running a download speed of around 800kb/s and has never done this before. I have no other connection issues with either my hard wired desktop, laptop or the 3 different mobiles in the house. Before you ask no they are not all on at once, usually just the laptop and one of the phones. Its not my connection because it signs straight back in with no issues.

The xbox is hard wired in to my netgear wireless n router and as i said has worked fine before.

Also my xbox is slooowww. It takes ages to sign in when it used to be quick as a flash and it takes forever to load up everything on the dashboard (thanks to all the crappy ads on my windows phone sorrry xbox that i now have to put up with) and everything just takes forever. ive cleared memory etc etc and nothing works.

Am i just doomed with this new crappy dashboard that doesnt update my friends (shows they are online when they have been off for hours!!!) or is there some sort of light at the end of the tunnel.

Really not at all happy with microsoft right now and seriously considering getting a ps3 instead.

p.s did i mention the new dashboard sux bum

So come on xbox lets get a solution cos i know im not the only one with these problems!

Hey there dragon - thank you for your post. One thing I'm curious about in your post is the laggy performance you say you experience on the Dashboard itself. Do you notice anything like this when your connection disabled? Also, in order for us to best help you, can you review the Start Here sticky (forums.xbox.com/.../155724.aspx) and let us know the information it requests in the bolded section? Thanks! :)

There is nothing wrong with my internet connection at all, all my other devices wired or wireless work fine. Im trying to watch a show on crackle and it lasts about 5 mins before i get disconnected. I immidiately run a network connection test and no issues goes straight through. It takes forever to load anything either signed in to my account or not. And its all got worse since the last update. You lot actually gonna tell us whats wrong or are you going to do the usual and blame everything else but you! I know im not the only one with these issues and we are all on different networks & consoles all over the world there is one common denominator and its you. Seriously getting miffed with microsoft now very high chance im not renewing my subscription because its steadily getting worse.

Oh and p.s my brother is in the same county running a 360s on bt broadband homehub 2 and having exactly the same problem.

Hey Dragon - I can certainly understand your frustration. However, we do need those codes that you would see when pressing "Y" at the completion of the network connection test. Can you provide those results? That will help us see what your console is seeing, connection wise. Thanks :)

I did the network test straight after i disconnected, i was in a game it disconnected, i went back to dash board it reconnected on its own, on the way to the test page it disconnected again before i got to the having to sign out point this is the test result.

Hello Dragon - I do apologize, it looks like this post was missed! :( I'm not seeing anything in particular with the status codes that you've provided that would indicate a problem. I would be interested in seeing what would occur if you set your console's DNS settings to other public DNS servers. Can you manually set both of those settings to any of these addresses? 4.2.2.1, 4.2.2.2, 4.2.2.3, 4.2.2.4 . Just make sure you use two different ones. Let us know if this helps!

Greetings, xX dragon666 Xx. Sorry to hear you're still experiencing this issue. Have you noticed whether the dashboard behaves slowly when disconnected? Does this issue occur when wired directly to the modem? You may also want to try re-downloading your profile like nef suggested by following the steps listed here: support.xbox.com/.../profile-move-delete.

I also noticed that your upload speed is about a third of a mbs. I would recommend having at least 1mbs. It seems like you didn't have this issue previously. Did you happen to connection speed previous to this issue? If so, was the upload speed about the same?
